Welcome to Happy Snowflake Dance!

It's my experiment in joyful, marrow-sucking living.
Inspired by George Santayana's poem,
There May Be Chaos Still Around the World

" They threat in vain; the whirlwind cannot awe
A happy snow-flake dancing in the flaw. "


My Mission: a daily journey into Openness.

I hope you'll come along!

Inner Peace now




Wow. It's Thursday morning here. I feel rested. And as I get ready to listen to my daily dose of Tolle, I am feeling really content. Peaceful and excited, too. I feel joy and gratitude welling up in me. I can't even explain why. I just do.

Well, we know why... I'm finally "getting" what Tolle has been saying for over 20-25 years. It's sinking deep into my spirit. And my spirit is finally waking up.   Yes, there are still thoughts and ideas, but this goes beyond words.  You can feel deep within your being, not just a new mental position or belief system or dogma.

I never really thought about death much. But now, I can honestly say that I am TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY at peace with death. I am not afraid of death. At all. I mean ALL FEAR IS GONE. I guess I never realized that, even as a Christian, I had been afraid of death. It didn't consume me, but I avoided the thought of it. Now, I am at peace.

Not that I plan on dying anytime soon, but I am at peace with death. I am at peace with this moment. I can feel a subtle shift occurring in me. And I feel it subtly changing my relationships. When I feel irritation over a tiny thing, I can catch myself almost immediately. Then, I stop and remind myself that what is...is. There is no use in complaining or grumbling. I accept what is. I don't have to be controlled by my thoughts or emotions or even my pain body and its triggers ever again. I can be at peace with what is in this moment.
